[00:37] <EuroTrash> So I just updated to 16.04, and now my fonts are horrible: http://imgur.com/a/OWppP they look fine in the preview window in the settings panel (yes, I prefer my fonts without anti-aliasing), but they look entirely different in the UI. I tried deleting pretty much every dir that starts with a dot (when outside kde), but it seems KDE is using an entirely different font for the interface despite my efforts to change it.
[00:37] <EuroTrash> Any pointers on how to fix this?
[00:44] <EuroTrash> Hm I guess completely removing Noto somewhat fixes it, heh.
[00:44] <EuroTrash> Gotta reboot
[00:46] <soee> EuroTrash: enable antialiasing for fonts
[00:46] <EuroTrash> soee: that's not what I want.
[00:47] <EuroTrash> Ok, so update: I removed most of the noto font and now at least the window contents are proper, but the window decorations are still not playing nicely.
[00:50] <EuroTrash> Removed some remains... gotta reboot again.

[01:12] <ranu> Is there any way to adjust Kmail in order to see emails in a table? Like Thunderbird, Evolution and Geary does.
[01:13] <ranu> There is the aggregation but I didn't like it personally.
[01:26] <YankDownUnder> ranu: Have you asked in the #kde channel?
[01:26] <ranu> No, I haven't
[01:26] <ranu> Good suggestion, gonna ask on that channel as well

[07:18] <makelix> Is Kubuntu Forums down for others too? Getting 503 here.
[07:22] <acheronuk> makelix: what url?

[07:23] <acheronuk> makelix: works here

[07:45] <makelix> FYI: I managed to reach https://www.kubuntuforums.net/ via Tor. It seems that I was blocked from the site while trying to start a new thread and attach some files (lspci dump etc.) to it. I have now sent a message to blocked@kubuntuforums.net, so maybe this will all work out in the end.

[08:52] <mhg> hi i can't mount my hard disk. why? An error occurred while accessing 'segate', the system responded: The requested operation has failed: Error mounting /dev/sdc1 at /media/mhg/segate: Command-line `mount -t "ntfs" -o "uhelper=udisks2,nodev,nosuid,uid=1000,gid=1000" "/dev/sdc1" "/media/mhg/segate"' exited with non-zero exit status 13: $MFTMirr does not match $MFT (record 5).
[08:53] <mhg> please help me!!!
[08:53] <ikonia> please don't cross post
[08:53] <ikonia> are you using ubuntu or kubuntu
[08:54] <mhg> ikonia: im on kubuntu
[08:54] <ikonia> ok - so probably best to keep it in here and wait for someone to respond
[08:57] <mhg> any idea?
[08:57] <ikonia> not looked at your problem
[08:58] <mhg> it does not mount on a Ubuntu vm
[08:58] <ikonia> I'm not looking at your problem
[08:59] <mhg> Ok, like what you said, waiting for somebody to help.
[08:59] <ikonia> perfect
[09:01] <acheronuk> Searching Google for '$MFTMirr does not match $MFT' I see several possible answers
[09:01] <mhg> acheronuk: Thank you very much.
[09:01] <acheronuk> Not that that is a replacement for help here, but you might like to check anyway
[09:02] <mhg> acheronuk: ok, no problem, i search google now.
[09:03] <acheronuk> the problem also looks non kubuntu specific, so #ubuntu and the ubuntu webforums may also be a better bet for a quick solution
[09:04] <mhg> acheronuk: Ok. i asked this on ubuntu too. no answer there.
[09:05] <acheronuk> It's a Sunday morning in large parts of the ubuntu using world, so responses may well be slow coming
[09:05] <mhg> acheronuk: ok, no problem. waiting.

[10:32] <tarator> Hi, after upgrade from Kubuntu 15.10 to 16.04 all the Tags, I made in Dolphins for files are lost. This brings up the question: Who the hell implements such a useless feature? Huh?
[10:34] <tarator> I'm using Kubuntu since 2007 and the latest version is the worst for a looong time. Far away to be usable in a production environment. I think it's really time to change the distribution.
[10:43] <Fyr> after installation I found out that some text is in Thai language. During installation I set preferred language - American English, Regional Settings - the United States.
[10:43] <Fyr> after installation I double-checked it.
[10:44] <IrcsomeBot> <Clifford> That's the nice thing about open source software. You can choose the distribution which best suites you
[10:44] <Fyr> what the fuck did the developer do to the KUbuntu?
[10:44] <Fyr> (xenial)
[10:46] <Fyr> how do I make kubuntu use English everywhere?
[10:52] <soee> what texts are in thai?

[11:00] <Fyr> I have no idea why it set it in Thai.
[11:02] <soee> and all is set fine in System Settings?
[11:02] <Fyr> sure

[14:40] <hangman13us> Hello all, did anyone update to 16.04 LTS via update manager? In my PC it says new version is available but nothing happens when I enter my password. Known bugg?
[14:41] <hangman13us> I use 14.04 LTS Kubuntu for now.
[14:41] <EuroTrash> It did work for me
[14:42] <hangman13us> No extra lines in the konsole or something? Just with the Update Manager.
[14:42] <IrcsomeBot> <ahoneybun> Upgrade from 1404 to 1604 is a large one
[14:42] <hangman13us> Ircsomebot - what you mean?
[14:42] <EuroTrash> Yeah this button "upgrade to kubuntu 16.04" appeared and magically, it worked (well, with some caveats but let's ignore that for now).
[14:43] <EuroTrash> Kill the thing and run it again, does the message still appear?
=== jhi is now known as jhi_
[14:43] <hangman13us> I'm not too eager to upgrade now but I'm annoyed it didn't work for me :(
[14:43] <hangman13us> I press update and enter my pass and nothing.
[14:44] <EuroTrash> How long did you leave it sit?
[14:44] <hangman13us> Yes it still appears. I restarted few times and etc. same thing over and over again.
[14:44] <hangman13us> My PC is on 24/7 so I suspect enough + I have high speed connection (in case it downloads the new version before it start).
[14:45] <hangman13us> Which btw doesn't make much sense given I expected to see some options how migration and upgrade will happen
[14:45] <EuroTrash> Well there's this checklist progress thingy, but it's pretty much unattended for the most part.
[14:45] <EuroTrash> I wonder if it logs anywhere
[14:47] <hangman13us> no clue, but I definitely don't want to re-image from scratch I would prefer upgrade if 16.04 is somehow cooler.
[14:47] <hangman13us> It is LTS but last time I had bad exp with some apps
[14:48] <hangman13us> EuroTrash you're using the 16.04 LTS now, aren't you?
[14:48] <hangman13us> Is it good?
[14:48] <EuroTrash> Yes
[14:49] <hangman13us> Any major changes?
[14:49] <EuroTrash> Well, it is now... had tons of UI issues, mainly involving fonts, but I managed to fix it.
[14:49] <EuroTrash> I like Plasma/KDE 5, seems lighter than 4 and still has similar customization options.
[14:49] <hangman13us> Sounds good, fonts always mess up the whole thing (at least on my PC).
[14:49] <EuroTrash> But the rest of the system.. it's mostly evolutionary.
[14:50] <EuroTrash> Still, running an old system will bite you in the ass at some point, so it's nice to be up to date again :D
[14:52] <hangman13us> I know...
[14:52] <hangman13us> Will have to handle this at some point
[14:52] <hangman13us> Maybe will try to upgrade with the konsole directly
[14:52] <EuroTrash> Yeah there's still do-release-upgrade, etc.
[14:54] <hangman13us> I still wonder what's wrong on my end so I cannot run the upgrade automatically...
[14:54] <hangman13us> Will give it 1-2 weeks more to see if it will sort out on its own :D
[14:54] <hangman13us> lol
[14:54] <hangman13us> And then will have to deal with this manually.
[15:38] <viewer|24993> hello
[15:38] <viewer|24993> i hacve a question of kubuntu 16.04
[15:40] <PTS> I installed software using apt-get install, then un-installed it using apt-get remove. I can't launch the program using the terminal, but I can still find it and use it from my KDE Application Menu. Does anyone have a clue how to solve this?
[15:40] <viewer|24993> When the computer go sleep ( period of time with no work) it ask me the paqssword.How can I get without password?
[15:42] <soee> PTS: maybe cache was not updated
[15:42] <soee> try to relogin
[15:42] <soee> viewer|24993: than you should configure it to not lock screen
[15:42] <soee> if you are sure it is completely safe for you
[15:45] <clivejo> System Settings> Under Workspace (Desktop Behavior) > Screen locking
[15:46] <viewer|24993> but i have a many time the computers with no work and when i go to work is seeking the password
[15:46] <viewer|24993> if is it the only posibility
[15:47] <PTS> soee: I have already tried to relog
[15:47] <PTS> it did not work
[15:50] <soee> PTS: remove it manually from menu :D
[15:50] <PTS> I have solved it. I used the Discover software manager to remove the program.
[15:51] <PTS> Take care everyone!

[17:29] <PTS> My bottom panel displays every program active on all workspaces. How do I change the panel to only display programs running in the current workspace?
[17:30] <YankDownUnder> PTS: Right-click, choose "Taskmanager Settings"
[17:34] <PTS> YankDownUnder: I tried picking the "Show only tasks from the current screen" option, nothing happned. Is this the correct option? Maybe I need to restard my computer for it to take effect.
[17:37] <YankDownUnder> PTS: You might have to log out and log back in.
[17:37] <PTS> Nevermind, I chose the wrong option!
[17:37] <PTS> "Show only tasts from the current desktop" is the correct answer!
[17:38] <YankDownUnder> PTS: Well, there ya go.
